5 Lab Releases

A Lab release is a preview of one
or more features under development which have normally not been
integrated into TRUNK yet. Lab release features are not part of
the last DMR (development milestone release). Lab releases are
created when the MySQL community voices interest in evaluating
early work, and they are
snapshots of the feature tree at
a given point in time. Lab releases can have beta quality, or they
can be available only on a limited set of platforms, or
documentation can not be available. Finally, there is no guarantee
that the features in a lab release will appear in future DMR or GA
releases. Lab releases can be found at
labs.mysql.com.
